K-pop sensation Huh Yunjin from LE SSERAFIM has achieved a remarkable milestone, with her solo compositions collectively surpassing 100 million streams on Spotify. The 22-year-old artist's five self-written tracks have garnered over 130 million plays on the global streaming platform, showcasing her growing influence as both a performer and songwriter in the international music scene.

According to recent data, Yunjin's original compositions including "Raise y_our glass," "I ≠ DOLL," "love you twice," "blessing in disguise," and "Jellyfish" have collectively reached 130.25 million streams as of July 9, 2025. This achievement underscores the artist's ability to connect with audiences through deeply personal and autobiographical storytelling that differs distinctly from LE SSERAFIM's group releases.

Recording Academy Membership Marks Historic Achievement

In a groundbreaking development, Yunjin was selected as a voting member of the Recording Academy on July 9, 2025, joining an elite group of music industry professionals who help determine Grammy Award winners. The Recording Academy invited 16 HYBE artists and producers as voting members, including Yunjin alongside other notable K-pop figures like SEVENTEEN's Woozi, TXT's Yeonjun, and ENHYPEN's Jungwon.

This recognition places Yunjin among approximately 3,600 music industry professionals invited to the Recording Academy's 2025 New Member Class, a prestigious honor that reflects her significant contributions to music creation and production. Her selection comes just three years after her debut, highlighting the rapid trajectory of her artistic career.

Musical Evolution and Creative Contributions

Yunjin's journey as a songwriter began with LE SSERAFIM's debut album, where she contributed to multiple tracks. Her most notable production credit came with the mini-album's fourth release in August 2024, where she served as main producer for "The Reason I Can't Go Crazy." Additionally, she collaborated with renowned Japanese artist Gen Hoshino on the lyrics for "Kawaii (Prod. Gen Hoshino)," featured on the group's fourth Japanese single released in June 2025.

The artist's solo compositions have resonated with international audiences due to their authentic lyrical content and unique musical style. Her tracks explore personal themes and experiences, offering listeners a more intimate glimpse into her artistic perspective beyond the group's commercial releases.

Global Recognition and Future Prospects

Expressing gratitude for her Recording Academy membership, Yunjin stated through her agency SOURCE MUSIC: "I am incredibly honored to be named alongside fellow artists and producers as a Recording Academy voting member. I entered this path simply because I love conveying my thoughts and stories through music, and I'm thrilled to have this wonderful opportunity while feeling a great sense of responsibility."

LE SSERAFIM continues to expand their global presence with the upcoming "2025 LE SSERAFIM TOUR 'EASY CRAZY HOT' IN ASIA," beginning July 19 in Taipei. The tour, covering Taipei, Hong Kong, Manila, and Singapore, sold out immediately upon ticket release, demonstrating the group's substantial international fanbase and commercial appeal.

Yunjin's dual achievement of streaming success and industry recognition positions her as a rising force in global music production. Her Recording Academy membership not only validates her artistic contributions but also provides her with influential voting power in determining future Grammy Awards, marking a significant milestone for K-pop representation in American music industry institutions.
